Thread: SU-85; The Thread21 Jul 2013, 21:06 PM Paks are probably the best way to deal with SU-85s, if you can't get an elephant. In: COH2 Balance
Thread: Maxim Spam + SU85 (aka attack move win)21 Jul 2013, 20:36 PM After about 100 games of using the scout car I went back to this strat, because the support weapon kompaneya/maxim gives you more staying power, better map control and allows for a larger room of error. If you open up with the tent, after you have lost the scout car you'll get pushed in hard and may not be able to recover from that vs. a decent enemy. You can also get the Zis-26 when things go haywire in midgame. In: Red Army Strategies

Thread: T-34/76 feels plain pathetic 20 Jul 2013, 19:28 PM Jump back to quoted post20 Jul 2013, 17:58 PMCombatMuffin Another example, an even BETTER example, is the Ostwind, another amazing AI tank, that costs more than 100+ fuel, and is VERY popular. The Ostwind actually rapes Infantry. You can't say the same about the T-34. The Ostwind also can deal with the T-34. Whereas the T-34 can deal with nothing the German fields. (Well, except if he got an Ostwind). The German has access to a quick PzIV follow-up. The SU-85 is everything but quick. You get stuck on the T-34 and that is that. Yes, it's a staying power problem. Then there's the redundancy with the T-70. The T-70 is much better at screwing with infantry and costs less fuel, allowing for a quicker SU-85 followup. T-34 position simply doesn't make much sense in the game. The T-34 needs to be on par, or even better than a sherman was. It is the only, non doctrinal tank the soviets have with a turret. And that's why I say that having a tank for "good" AI purposes and only "decent" AV is not feasable for the Soviets. As you say, it's your only turreted tank, you already have plenty of AI options, Doctrinal and Non-Doctrinal, it costs a lot and it comes out in a timeframe when Ostheer starts pressuring you with their Armor; when you need AV the most.

Thread: SU-85; The Thread20 Jul 2013, 14:12 PM Jump back to quoted post20 Jul 2013, 14:11 PMNullist Tired of irrelevancy, false facts, bias and overt diregard for objectivity. You're currently viewing an internet bulletin board about a computer real time strategy game. Honestly, what are you expecting? In: COH2 Balance
Thread: SU-85; The Thread20 Jul 2013, 14:00 PM Jump back to quoted post20 Jul 2013, 12:17 PMNullist The SU85 drivers arent any more retarded when given proper shift qued reverse commands than are the pursuing Ost drivers who cant/can barely keep up with it while taking frontal hits from its powerful gun. Irrelevant. You're on a roll today, aren't you. Bad day at work? In: COH2 Balance
Thread: T-34/76 feels plain pathetic 20 Jul 2013, 13:44 PM Jump back to quoted post20 Jul 2013, 13:04 PMNullist If 1min is not significant in your falsely unbiased eyes and opinion, then how about we delay SU85 by a minute? Im one post away from ignoring all future balance commentary on your part as deliberately biased and intentionally unobjective. Make it count. You don't have to ask my permission to ignore me. You're uneccessarily angry and extremely bitter the whole time - so please go ahead, if you feel that it helps you to keep your calm. We can delay the SU-85 by one minute, I would have no problems with that - in fact I have been proposing a delay to the SU-85 for a couple of weeks. One minute seems pretty useless to me though, just means I need to hold onto one territory point more to keep current timing. Your rage was kinda helpful though, because going over the sheet again I realised that the techpath for germans and soviets was completely unrealistic. This is now reflected in the sheet.

Thread: T-34/76 feels plain pathetic 20 Jul 2013, 12:55 PM Jump back to quoted post20 Jul 2013, 12:46 PMNullist Chart now shows T34 at 6.5 time to field, and PIV at 7.5 time to field. That means a) T34s hit the field earlier, negating your argument. b) is a substantial window, negating your claim that "did not alter the times in a significant way" Next time please consider your own calculations before forcing the community to waste its time intervening to correct false statements. 1 minute is not significant. Thanks for spotting the mistake though. In: COH2 Balance
